CFEE at the Toronto Global Forum (TGF) – Your Invitation to Participate!
We are pleased to invite you to attend, as a guest of the Canadian Foundation for Economic Education (CFEE), the upcoming Toronto Global Forum (TGF) Monday, October 26 to Wednesday, October 28, 2020. Most particularly, we are inviting you to participate in a forum on the future of education on Tuesday morning, October 27th at 11:00 am EST. The timing of this important discussion is excellent – just in advance of November’s Financial Literacy month. The details for the Forum are the following:
FORUM 1 – A GLOBAL APPROACH TO EDUCATION – Tuesday October 27, 2020, 11:00 a.m. – 11:50 a.m. EST
In a rapidly changing national and international environment, the necessity and purpose of education is more important than ever. How is the current economic crisis affecting the education systems? How can countries and communities create innovative approaches to education to not only provide an efficient and robust workforce, but also help people navigate through the challenges of their daily lives? Is digitalization an answer to bring more equality?

- Daphne Taras, Dean, Ted Rogers School of Management, Ryerson University
